HR Manager: The company is requesting that all employees have their work emails on their phones.
Gen Z: Cool, who should I bill?
HR Manager: Pardon me?
Gen Z: For the portion of my phone they will be using? Unless we're getting new phones — you know I wouldn't say no to an upgrade.
HR Manager: No compensation will be provided.
Gen Z: Why do they want our work emails on our phones?
HR Manager: So you have access to your emails at all times.
Gen Z: But I have access during my work hours — that's what my laptop is for.
HR Manager: Well, in case we need to get a hold of you outside of those hours.
Gen Z: Ohhh, so what the company really wants is for us to work 24/7 and use our personal devices and phone plans to make that happen.
HR Manager: (Confused silence)
Gen Z: Yeah, that's going to be a no for me, but thanks for asking.
HR Manager: (Ends the impromptu briefing.)
Gen Z workplace behavior is driving HR absolutely insane.
But you know what they are doing?
They are saying out loud what the older generation has been thinking for decades.
They just don’t care about the consequences yet. And honestly, good for them.
Corporate spent decades convincing the older generation that working 24/7 and unpaid overtime using own resources was a sign of loyalty and commitment. Gen Z showed up and said prove it.
And corporate can’t, so now they are scrambling.
Why don’t they want to commit? Why don’t they care about the company culture? Why are they so entitled?
They are not entitled. They just watched the older generation get laid off after 20 years of 'loyalty' and 'commitment' and said, yep, I am not doing that.
Gen Z workplace energy is exactly what corporate deserves.

Corporate Tips In 2026
1. If your HR or management asks you to speak freely, please Don’t.
2. Be the last one in, the first one out, and do as little as possible while getting maximum pay
3. Someone at work will suggest installing Outlook and Teams on your phone. Do not listen
4. So many HR managers prefer hiring someone who is currently employed vs who is unemployed
5. Job-hopping will pay you faster than loyalty ever will.
6. Leaving a toxic job for your mental health is actually a win.
7. Document everything
8. The office is not stressful because of work. It’s stressful because of people.
9. Lie to your coworkers
10. Anyone saying “my job gives me a purpose in life" is genuinely a slave
11. Good employees don’t complain they just leave
12. Refusing small beginnings is a silent career killer.
Wise words
“My name’s Frank. I’m 64, a retired electrician.
Forty-two years I spent running wires through houses, fixing breakers, making sure people had light in their kitchens and heat in their winters. Never once did anyone ask me where I went to college. Mostly, they just wanted to know if I could get the power back on before their ice cream melted.
Last May, I was at my granddaughter Emily’s school career day. You know the drill — doctors, lawyers, a software guy in a slick suit talking about “scaling startups.” I was the only one there with a tool belt and work boots.
When it was my turn, I told the kids, “I don’t have a degree. I’ve never sat in a lecture hall. But I’ve wired schools, hospitals, and your principal’s house. And when the hospital generator failed during a snowstorm in ’98, I was the one in the basement with a flashlight, keeping the lights on for newborn babies upstairs.”
The kids leaned forward. They had questions — real ones. “How do you fix stuff in the dark?” “Do you make a lot of money?” “Do you ever get zapped?” (Yes, once, and it’ll curl your hair.)
When the bell rang, one boy hung back. Small kid, freckles, hoodie too big for him. He mumbled, “My uncle’s a plumber. People laugh at him ’cause he didn’t finish high school. But… he’s the only one in the family who can fix anything.”
I looked that boy in the eye and said, “Kid, your uncle’s a hero. When your toilet overflows at midnight, Harvard ain’t sending anyone. A plumber is.”
Here’s the thing nobody told me when I was young — the world doesn’t run without tradespeople. You can have all the engineers you want, but if nobody builds the house, wires the power, or lays the pipes, those blueprints just sit in a drawer.
We’ve made it sound like trades are what you do if you can’t go to college, instead of a path you choose because you like working with your hands, solving problems, and seeing your work stand solid for decades.
Four years after high school, some kids walk away with diplomas. Others walk away with zero debt, a union card, and a skill they can take anywhere in the world. And guess what? When your furnace dies in January, it’s not the diploma that saves you.
A few weeks ago, that same freckled kid’s mom stopped me at the grocery store. She said, “You probably don’t remember, but you told my son trades are important. He’s shadowing his uncle this summer. First time I’ve seen him excited about anything in years.”
That’s the part we forget — for some kids, knowing their path is respected changes everything. It’s not about “just” fixing wires or pipes. It’s about pride. Purpose. The kind that sticks with you long after the job’s done.
So next time you meet a teenager, don’t just ask, “Where are you going to college?” Ask, “What’s your plan?” And if they say, “I’m learning to weld,” or “I’m starting an apprenticeship,” smile big and say, “That��s fantastic. We’re going to need you.”
Because we will. More than ever. And when the lights go out, you’ll be glad they showed up.”
You're not alone if you, or someone you care about, is struggling with mental health problems 🖤

The Samaritans have seen a dramatic uptick in teenagers reaching out in the wake of Duran's openness about his mental health ❤️
Right on cue, he clubs a hustle double for his second two-bagger of the night 🥹
Wow. No words.
So brave of Jarren Duran to open up about his mental health and suicide attempt in 2022.
Duran said he’d be standing in the outfield at Fenway and people were screaming at him to “Go back to AAA”. All the while thinking he wanted to take his own life.
Why choose hatred when you can choose to be kind. Protect your mental health and do your part to help others that just might be going through something you can’t see.
